* batteries: many options available here. We recommend getting LiPo batteries. You'll need a battery that can provide over 14V(*), so a 4s battery works well. You can get batteries with various mAh ratings (how many milliAmperes the battery can output for 1 hour). We recommend any option over 4000mAh. Higher capacity comes at a higher cost. You can also get more than one battery and swap them out. The rover can carry them as well.
